What Else Is New

(album: Adobe Sessions - 2015)

California's still on fire
And it don't rain no more in Texas
There's a few less ice caps way up north of here
Mother Russia stays pissed-off
Yeah, she's got some big old bombs
Still throwing around her weight after all these years

And the price of gasoline is enough to make you scream
Yeah, the cost of living goes up and the pay goes down
I don't care what's right or left, y'all
I'm just out here with the rest
In the middle class, that still means broke to me

What else is new? I'm telling you
I'm telling what the blue collar man is going thru
We don't let no bad news hang around
It's the same old situation
All the problems facing our great nation
So to hell to all those bringing that bad news down

And the politicians will never know
How to let their egos go
No, they could not give two damns 'bout you and me
Yeah, but they still got their pensions
With some tactics they'd rather not mention
That's the price we pay for them living free

What else is new? I'm telling you
All the trouble a blue collar man is going thru
We don't let no bad news hang around
It's the same old situation
All the problems facing our great nation
So to hell to all those bringing that bad news down

What else is new? I'm telling you
All the trouble a blue collar man is goin thru
We don't let no bad news hang around
It's the same old situation
All the problems facing our great nation
So to hell to all those bringing that bad news down

All to hell with all those bringing that bad news down
All to hell with all those bringing that bad news ...
